Child Endangerment:
A single Georgia mother of five was relieved to finally get back to work last May in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, so she left her kids at home with her 14-year-old daughter to look after them because schools and daycare were closed.
But a few days after going back to work, Melissa Henderson returned home to a Union County Sheriff’s deputy at her house. Her 4-year-old son briefly got out of his older sister’s sight and wandered over to the neighbor’s house to play with his friend. Police charged her with reckless conduct.
